Solid state drives, also known as Flash storage, pays for itself through its stability when compared with HDD storage. For businesses with proprietary information to protect, the security that SSD offers cannot be overstated. Aside from their optional hardware encryption, SSDs have no moving parts. So, they’re much easier to handle than other forms of storage. This makes them the preferred method of transport for data that must be physically moved from location to location.

Companies that are known for their solid state drives include HP, LaCie, Kanguru Solutions, Kingston Digital, and Edge Memory. Also, SSDs don’t require brand matching in order to work effectively, so businesses have the freedom to purchase the Flash storage drive that provides the most value for the money. SSDs enhance this value through features such as speed, the durability of the outside casing, and the portability of the unit.

The external solid state format is also a great way to back up information that is likely to be kept on an internal hard drive for a long period of time. The casings are very resistant to the outside elements, and they do not have large motherboards that can fail like desktop and laptop computers, further ensuring the safety of the data in spite of heavy use. Here at PC Connection, we will work with you to find the solid state drives that would best serve your business.
